Grace community has been a blessing for me and my daughter as a first time single dad. They are so family oriented . There’s not a day I fear for my daughters well being and safety at grace. They are so helpful. They don’t shame my daughter for still learning to potty train. I think overall grace community is the top school in fort myers for children. I would recommend them to anyone who has doubts or fears for sending there child to school first time.

To their own behavior to affect the study, really become the example of students so that students fromTeachers know what to do,What not to do.As a result,The teaching of the teacher,In dealing with people, behavior, words and deeds must be serious, prudent, standard,Tact, must not be careless, thoughtless, capricious, irresponsible. Besides, teachTeachers should also and students to carry out regular spiritual communication, open the mind to the students, bothYou can talk to students about the valuable lessons you have learned from life.

My Son has been going to Grace Community since he was 1. I had decided to put him in their Kindergarten class and I am so glad I did!!! The teachers and staff are so great with kids and treat them like their own!! I never had anxiety leaving my child at daycare because I knew he was happy and had great people looking after him!! He is now 8 and very accelerated in his education and Grace Community had a big hand in that!! Grace Community is family!!!❤️

I love Grace Community! My boys Damian and Aidan always come home happy from their day at school. We really don’t call it day care because I see that they learn so much there! Amazing staff, I definitely recommend others to take their kids there.

I’m unable to speak for the other locations, but this Grace Community location off Medical Lane is fantastic. They provide tons of activities and additional things that my toddler has a blast with.They treat our kids wonderfully. My infant daughter kicks and giggles with excitement when we get there and my three year old is constantly talking about “whale school” and how much fun he has - to the point he’s sometimes bummed on the weekends when he doesn’t go.The staff has been quite patient with my son figuring out his toddler antics and he is learning quite a bit there... I highly recommend this facility for your kids.

I was so nervous about sending my children to daycare, this daycare has exceeded my expectations. They genuinely care about the kids and I couldn’t feel more comfortable about who’s care I’m leaving them in. Every employee is so kind and I can’t thank them enough for all they do for these kids. If you are as nervous as I was about sending your child to daycare I can promise you this place is great! 10/10 recommend!

My son has been attending Grace since he was 3 months old, he starts pre-k next year, and we couldnt be happier with them. His needs have always been met and any concerns are addressed immediately. He comes home in a good mood and is excited to go to school. Would recommend Grace for anyone looking for quality care for a great price.

Review №26

Too many kids they cannot supervise toddlers properly. Not staffed to handle typical toddler behavior. I’m sad this was our first daycare experience. My “good” kid cried every day. When I asked about their day they told me they cried all day.Reply to the safety: It seems very one sided. I had two kids. One was complaining they were getting hurt nothing was reported on that incident either. I found a place better that does not hide behind a church to assure proper student ratios.

This school Fort Myers location In my opinion discriminates against handicapped children. I have a 4 year old who has cerebral palsy diplegia (low extremity) which means he walks with a walker for mobile assistance. My initial contact over the phone with the director I was told they really don’t accept handicapped children. I called their hotline and was told that I could bring my child to visit the school to see how well he would fit. We were shown around one classroom and the park. My son navigated from room to room with no problem! Climbed the stairs to play at the park no problem! The director then told me he wouldn’t fit at their school because “She was concerned how the other children would react to his condition and walker” I stated he’s been at daycare since he was 6 weeks old and has had no issues. Then she say “We don’t have enough staff to look after him if he may need help”. She said “There are 30 kids to one teacher and they wouldn’t be able to stop with other kids to help him” I said help with what? He goes to the bathroom, eat, sit, run, jump and play like every other child as she could see! I feel it was excuse after excuse just to say no. Children adapt to different things everyday in life and I feel I was being told my child handicapped condition is too much of a distraction for the other children at her school. Little do she know kids are better than adults when it comes to seeing other children that are disabled. They embrace them and help them. My son is a normal boy that’s walks with a walker and has never experienced anything like this. I feel her saying it would be an issue for the other children was a cover up for it really being an issue for her. Again this my experience and my opinion.

My son has had a nanny since he was 4 months old. He has never been away from me or my nanny ever. And so for his first two days, for him to come home and tell me he loves his school is huge for me. You always want what is best for your child and sometimes youre nervous but just hearing him say he loves school makes me feel like I made the right choice. I usually get a picture a week in his backpack and there is just something so special about that.

This is a wonderful school. The staff is extremely friendly. I love the different themes they do each week. My children are always excited to go and always have something to tell me at the end of the day about fun activities they have done or the things they have learned. It is a great school to help children prepare for future school life. I also love their parent reading time allowing parents to be part of their childrens learning experience in school setting.

I was having faith in this place but they disappoint me this is the first time for my 10 months old daughter in a daycare and they made me feel like my daughter was the only one with needs, also it looks like they do not clean everyday the rooms I pick up my baby a couple times and her feet were black they didnt prepare my daughter in the afternoons no diaper change and black feet. Very disappointed.

We love grace community, I was a new mother who didnt really want to go the daycare route. However grace is more then that they are a family who are very loving and have taught my little boy so much already.

I have just enrolled my son to this location about 2 weeks ago. So far I like the location. It is clean and bright and the front office is clean. The owners worked with me as I had a previous balance from another location. They are very accommodating and go to great lengths to make me feel comfortable. So far I am very happy with the interaction that my son gets and I notice him talking a lot more.

Last summer I switched my child to Grace Community School for the summer, while school was not in session. I loved that I felt my child was safe and cared for while I was working or in school. It felt amazing to find quality care for a cost that is affordable, and the care goes above and beyond.

My son has been going to Grace since he was 3 months old. The teachers are all so great and loving and really care about him. He has learned so much from A,B,Cs, to shapes, to sharing, to manners, to starting to read. I could not be happier with the progress he has made in the 4 and a half years he has been with Grace.

They barely have any English speaking teachers there so how do they even teach and show the kids anything. Like I went with my friend to drop of her son in the starfish class room and tell me how non of the teachers in that class room speak English & there’s one that tries in there but she can’t & can’t understand much I can tell by just watching the kids trying to communicate with them and they just say ok when the kids are trying to actually tell them something that happened to them or when they ask them something just really bad .its sad because at the end the kids are suffering

To my standards very satisfied with everything, from the moment I bring in my son and see Mrs. Amy and her husband say a simple Good Morning and when I go pickup my child and your asked how was my day, see all the attention they and all staff members provide makes me feel like turning back the clock and being a kid myself and going to school there.

Horrible day care. I had my kid there for about 2 months. He cried everyday. Never got use to the place. Wayyy too many kids in one little tiny area. About 15 toddlers all bunched up together in a tiny section. My son wouldnt eat or sleep due to such stress. They had the a/c broken for about a week and did not fix the issue asap. Now my son is in another school that he just started and loves it. He even naps 2 hours at this new school and eats super well there.I would not recommend this place to any parent. They are more interested in the money than the children!

My daughter attended Grace Community school on Medical lane Fort Myers once she started VPK and for Kindergarten. If they had 1st grade at this school, she wouldve attended then. After Kindergarten at Grace, she attends a Lee County School where she is in the Gifted Program with only 5 other students. My daughter is reading on a 5th grade level this year; she is in the 2nd grade now. My daughter not only excelled at academics because of the foundations set by her parents and ENFORCED by Grace Community School, she also participated in dance classes where she was able to work out physically. Naturally, when we were presented with the opportunity to take piano lessons at Grace, we jumped right on it! Grace Community Medical Lane is open year round with very few days closed for certain holidays; when there is no school, my child still attends the Day program at Grace during the school year as well as some weeks during the summer. They are our Go-To facility for these dates. As a former DCF Child Protective Investigator, I will definitely say my daughter is safe, clean, and in a safe environment. It is even more reassuring that the proprietors of this location, Mr. and Mrs. Slack also have all of their children attending the programs offered as well. Mrs. Amy knows us when we walk through the door. We are not just a payment to this facility. They are fair and very respectful with awesome communication with the parents. There are frequent themed days, activities, and the end of the year celebrations for the Kindergarten graduation are always put on in Theatrical Fashion! Even if you dont have a child at this facility, the Christmas Program is a HUGE EVENT and a must to see. I recommend this facility/location to anyone I come in contact with that asks me if I know of any safe, affordable, educational places. GRACE COMMUNITY SCHOOL Fort Myers is a superb educational facility.

DO NOT ENROLL YOUR CHILD HERE! teachers simply do not care. the daycare does not accommodate children with allergies. the staff is neglectful. children wander all over the building at all ages. one even followed me from a classroom and almost out the door with no one noticing. my child came home without underwear/pullups after wetting himself even though they were supplied. they change schedules such as breakfast without telling the parents and classrooms as well. everyday, my child is in a different classroom. THE PLACE IS OVERCROWDED. simply put. and rates are higher based on location. do not expect them to honor any promotional or discounted rates. immediately unenrolling my child from this place.However, the orange grove location is superb.

Horrible! My son was there a total of 2 and a half hours, was called to pick my 3 year old son up because he wouldnt stay in the class room. Horrible. Im a single mother who started a new job and get called within 3 hours of my sons FIRST day there to come and pick him up. I told the people hes a 3 year old who hasnt been in day care in over a year, I expected there to be some issues, what I didnt expect was for this facility to just demand my son be picked up instead of working with him, understand its his first day!! He was some place new, with people he didnt know and they behaved like he was a criminal! I will tell every single person I come into contact with what a joke this facility is and how horribly we were treated.

I had my son here in other locations and my son did not like it at all! I did like that they did things for holidays with the kids however To many kids in a small space and the ladies there dont exactly pay attention to the kids very well or maybe it just that their are to many... ive walked in early in the day to see the teachers on their phones and a radio telling a story to kids that werent even paying attention were crying and walking around. Anyway i took my son out last year and he wont be returning again.

They declined to have my 2 years old boy just for be a toddler basically. Rude staff, we had to leave our job because they need the boy out! What a disrepectful actitude, they are just kids, schools are to teach, not to avoid kid behaivor and just pull them out, why we are paying for then? I just cant understand, unfortunetly i cant post pictures here, but my son came with a great punched eyed last week, and we understood. Things happen! I am filling a report in the county in the next days, so be prepared for at least clean up and hide all the mess you guys have in the school, i will let the county now about it, and thanks for erased my comments on your social media pages, just post what you like. God bless you
